About a month ago, I got a 3D Hobbies Osiris and I've been flying it for a couple of weeks now. I can't believe I haven't seen more excitement about it on this forum! It is a fantastic, well thought out, and produced kit with excellent hardware and prefabrication work. I had mine in the air with about 4 hours of shop time.

The Osiris flies beautifully and trims out easily. By playing with battery position, I was able to find a CG position that has no rudder to elevator mix and no rudder to ail mix. It needed about 2% down elevator to low throttle to track straight on a down line. That's all the mixing I have. Even though it is a "small model" it flies and tracks as well as a 2 meter plane and it is designed to fly on a 5s lipo pack so that I can fly on the same batteries that I use for my 2 meter ship ( I use two separate packs rather than soldering two packs together like many do). This plane flies so well, that I haven't been taking my Black Magic out to the field since I got it. I really like being able to fly twice as many flights with the same number of batteries and chargers.

Having owned and flown the Vanquish one and two and the fliton Element 30, I can say from first hand experience that the Osiris is 300% more solid than any of those planes while only being slightly larger. So if you are looking for a relatively inexpensive, easily transportable and good flying plane, consider this one!
